Abstract
The synthesis of highly extended and sulfur rich tetrathiafulvalene de rivatives, designed to avoid any internal cyclisation during their sub sequent electrooxidation, is described Their pi-donating ability is co nfirmed by cyclic voltammetry, as well as the good stability of each o f their oxidized species (up to an hexacationic state in one case).
